Award-Winning AP Physics 1 Tutors serving Salt Lake City, UT

...I discovered my love for teaching and tutoring as I helped my younger siblings with math and physics while I was in high school, which I continued to do using Skype after leaving for college. In college, I learned the value of working on homework in groups, and often explained concepts to others in the group, helping them understand the material for themselves rather than just giving them the answers. My favorite part about helping...

I had the opportunity as a teaching assistant to help tutor and educate fellow mechanical engineering students in several subjects throughout my time in university. Since then as a professional engineer I've refined my design/CAD skills and want to help teach those who want to learn those skills.

...a B.A. in Philosophy. I work in research related to quantum cosmology and the philosophy of time. I have years of experience teaching and tutoring in math, science, and literature at the high school and university level. By a comprehensive study and mastery of the ACT test, I achieved a composite score of 35 on the exam. I enjoy sharing the techniques and strategies I used to score in the 99th percentile, knowing that all...

...year at BYU, I deferred for two years to serve a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in Houston, TX. During my Full-Time Missionary experience, I became fluent in Spanish, taught people about Christian principles and beliefs, taught English to Latinos weekly, held several leadership positions and provided community service regularly. I love to teach a wide variety of subjects, but my greatest strengths are Chemistry, Math, and Spanish. I firmly...

...Brigham Young University with a BS in physics and astronomy. While I was there, I had a fun time being a teaching assistant (TA) for lots of different physics classes. This got me excited about helping others learn physics and math, and helping them realize their full potential in traditionally difficult subjects. In addition to some research in computational physics, I've also been a TA for various programming classes and enjoy helping students hone their...

...currently an undergraduate student at BYU completing a B.S. in Biophysics with a minor in French. I plan on getting a PhD in Physics and pursue a career as a college professor. I love learning new subjects, hiking in the mountains, swimming, water polo, music, and traveling. My experience in teaching and mentoring has taken many different forms over the years. I have taught Advanced Wilderness Medicine techniques to physicians in the Netherlands, educated Kenyan...

...I've been passionate about physics, and the math behind it, for as long as I can remember. However, I recognize that these subjects can be rather stressful for others, which is why I want to help in any way I can as a tutor. On campus I tutor for the math department, helping first and second year students in their pre-calc through multivariable calculus classes. I always try to make tutoring as enjoyable of an...

...has given me a lot of unique opportunities to learn from diverse teachers and peers. From these experiences, I have gained an appreciation for many different learning styles. I began tutoring in high school at my international school in the Netherlands, and later I served as a religious teacher for two years as a missionary (one year in Argentina, one year in Colorado). Through these and other experiences, I have found that one of my...

...are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." This quote from one of Marianne Williamson's classic books sums up my journey in the world of academics. Growing up as a teenager, I used to have phobia for science, especially maths. I used to tell myself, "I can't do this, this would be the end of me." 18 years down the line, here I am, a Masters Degree holder in Chemical Engineering from...

My name is Braden Brown and I am an electrical engineering student at the University of Utah. I have been working part time as a tutor at both the University of Utah and at Salt Lake Community College for about three months now. I love helping people learn and I've really enjoyed working with people of all ages to succeed in their classes.

...at Brigham Young University in Applied Physics with an Emphasis in Education. I have several years of experience conducting educational acoustics labs for non-physics majors and conducting research for a senior thesis. I love helping people understand complicated concepts. The payoff of their excitement and relief when they understand is one of the best feelings. I genuinely enjoy working with people and have been told I uplift those who work around me.

...My current area of research is in soft matter and optics. At Carleton, I work as a problem solving facilitator in the physics department and as Makerspance manager, where I help students with projects ranging from sewing to electronics. I most enjoy tutoring physics, closely followed by math. In both of these subjects, I believe problem solving, both guided and independent is an ideal way to learn and solidify skills. Additionally, training a critical thinking...

...math, and I am excited to help people understand these topics better. I don't have any direct tutoring/teaching experience (yet!), but I have spent years helping peers and friends learn more about STEM topics. I have a flexible schedule and am willing to help anyone that needs me. I will help you develop your critical thinking and problem-solving skills by working through problems together, asking lots of questions, and keeping you engaged and motivated. Feel...

...Given the varied (and often unique) backgrounds of our students, this has often posed an andragogical challenge. In our typical management scenario, I regularly have students with no training in interpersonal relations or management. The goal of those initial lectures will then acquaint students with a practical working knowledge of management, human relationships, and leadership principles. This approach is rarely met with resistance, often leading students to appreciate their chosen academic career path and creating...

...been a TA for all kinds of classes ranging from Multivariable Calculus to Organic Chemistry. I'm a strong believer than a holistic understanding of a subject is infinitely better than checking boxes, so I try to make sure that my students can not only do the work assigned to them, but also ensure they understand what it is they are doing. I think learning should be fun, and that the best teachers know how to...

...in my head. I have tutored friends in both high school and college, in both math and physics. I haven't worked as a tutor professionally, but I will be able to draw on my experience from helping my peers through school to tutor others in the best way possible. I graduated from the University of Utah's Mechanical Engineering program with a 3.9 GPA, so I have a good grasp of all of the subjects that...

...were my favorite subjects in high school, and I genuinely believe physics is the coolest and most fascinating subject taught in school. Unfortunately many students do not share my enthusiasm for physics, which is something I want to help change. I want to work directly with students to identify how they learn best, and breakdown the areas they struggle with most in class to more understandable pieces. Hopefully I can share my excitement for physics...

...loved my experience as a math tutor. I am invested in each of my students' success and work hard to help them succeed. Consequently, each of my past tutoring clients has seen significant improvement. I am a big believer in catering to students' learning styles. I pay attention to whether they are an audio, visual, or kinesthetic learner, and then I tutor accordingly. I am currently a junior at Brigham Young University. I am an...

...and maths is the most fundamental subject for a lot of things. Here are some of the classes I have taken: Calculus 1, 2, 3, Discrete Mathematics, Linear Algebra, Intro to Data Structures, Projective Geometry, Advanced Calculus, Abstract Algebra, Bayesian Data Analysis, etc. I have tutored colleges students in maths for more than two years now. I managed to explain and clarify math theories, address and keep track of each tutee's weak points and help...

...in astronomy. I am currently working on my Masters degree in astrophysics at BYU. I have worked as a physics tutor for the last three years through my university, and love helping students learn how to learn! I love seeing the joy that comes when something clicks in the minds of my students. Because physics is heavy in math, I also enjoy tutoring all math subjects. I have found that learning can be great fun...
